As the vtime is sampled under loose seqcount protection by kcpustat, the
vtime fields may change as the code flows. Where logic dictates a field
has a static value, use a READ_ONCE.

Every time we call irqtime_account_process_tick() is in a interrupt,
Every caller will get and assign a parameter rq = this_rq(), This is
unnecessary and increase the code size a little bit. Move the rq getting
action to irqtime_account_process_tick internally is better.

Many callsites want to fetch the values of system, user, user_nice, guest
or guest_nice kcpustat fields altogether or at least a pair of these.

In that case calling kcpustat_field() for each requested field brings
unecessary overhead when we could fetch all of them in a row.

So provide kcpustat_cpu_fetch() that fetches the whole kcpustat array
in a vtime safe way under the same RCU and seqcount block.

Provide support for user, nice, guest and guest_nice fields through
kcpustat_field().

Whether we account the delta to a nice or not nice field is decided on
top of the nice value snapshot taken at the time we call kcpustat_field().
If the nice value of the task has been changed since the last vtime
update, we may have inacurrate distribution of the nice VS unnice
cputime.

However this is considered as a minor issue compared to the proper fix
that would involve interrupting the target on nice updates, which is
undesired on nohz_full CPUs.

<title>sched/kcpustat: Introduce vtime-aware kcpustat accessor for CPUTIME_SYSTEM</title>

<content type='text'>
Kcpustat is not correctly supported on nohz_full CPUs. The tick doesn't
fire and the cputime therefore doesn't move forward. The issue has shown
up after the vanishing of the remaining 1Hz which has made the stall
visible.

We are solving that with checking the task running on a CPU through RCU
and reading its vtime delta that we add to the raw kcpustat values.

We make sure that we fetch a coherent raw-kcpustat/vtime-delta couple
sequence while checking that the CPU referred by the target vtime is the
correct one, under the locked vtime seqcount.

Only CPUTIME_SYSTEM is handled here as a start because it's the trivial
case. User and guest time will require more preparation work to
correctly handle niceness.

Standardize the naming on top of the vtime_accounting_enabled_*() base.
Also make it clear we are checking the vtime state of the
*current* CPU with this function. We'll need to add an API to check that
state on remote CPUs as well, so we must disambiguate the naming.

Record guest as a VTIME state instead of guessing it from VTIME_SYS and
PF_VCPU. This is going to simplify the cputime read side especially as
its state machine is going to further expand in order to fully support
kcpustat on nohz_full.

In order to compute the kcpustat delta on a nohz CPU, we'll need to
fetch the task running on that target. Checking that its vtime
state snapshot actually refers to the relevant target involves recording
that CPU under the seqcount locked on task switch.

This is a step toward making kcpustat moving forward on full nohz CPUs.

<title>sched/cputime: Spare a seqcount lock/unlock cycle on context switch</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8d495477d62e4397207f22a432fcaa86d9f2bc2d</id>
<content type='text'>
On context switch we are locking the vtime seqcount of the scheduling-out
task twice:

 * On vtime_task_switch_common(), when we flush the pending vtime through
   vtime_account_system()

 * On arch_vtime_task_switch() to reset the vtime state.

This is pointless as these actions can be performed without the need
to unlock/lock in the middle. The reason these steps are separated is to
consolidate a very small amount of common code between
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN and CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE.

Performance in this fast path is definitely a priority over artificial
code factorization so split the task switch code between GEN and
NATIVE and mutualize the parts than can run under a single seqcount
locked block.

As a side effect, vtime_account_idle() becomes included in the seqcount
protection. This happens to be a welcome preparation in order to
properly support kcpustat under vtime in the future and fetch
CPUTIME_IDLE without race.
